Eyes That Hypnotise is a short puzzle game with some interesting pets and animals that need to be put in the right place. This little puzzle game is easy to learn and incredibly adorable.
The Gameplay of Eyes That Hypnotise
Eyes That Hypnotise is incredibly simple. It gives you a variety of different animals, all shaped differently, that need to be positioned correctly to ensure they fit into the given grid. There are loads of these types of games out there; I even have a physical board game version of it with just a bunch of little, colorful, plastic cat blocks.
But Eyes That Hypnotise introduces a whole bunch of different animals that are different shapes; each has a name, a brief description of them, and a different shape that needs to be combined. There are cats, bunnies, racoons, dogs, birds, and tons of other little friends that want to be put into place. All the animals are very cute, and each has unique art with massive eyes to hypnotize you.
The Pros of Eyes That Hypnotise
Eyes That Hypnotise is super cute, the animations feel amazing, and the art is so good. It’s filled with cute animals, adorable sounds, a chill background soundtrack, and simple-to-learn puzzles. I think it is well-made and a fantastic example of the genre.
I will be the first to admit that I’m not the biggest fan of these types of puzzle games, but I found Eyes That Hypnotise to be one of the best of its kind that I have ever played. It was smooth to play, had no bugs, and had 60 levels to play that progressed in difficulty. Not to mention that it also has an extremely helpful and well-made hint system to make any levels you can’t get through much easier; I was happy to see that the hints are limitless, so you can get the puzzle correct and move on to a new one.
I was surprised to see that the developer is already planning to add a bunch more levels to the game this year; they posted on the Eyes That Hypnotise Steam page that they are looking to add several more levels for holidays and, hopefully, more levels in April 2025.
The Cons of Eyes That Hypnotise
I didn’t have any issues while playing Eyes That Hypnotise. Some of the animal sounds got a little grating after a while, but that wasn’t a big deal to me. I just turned the sound down and it was fine.
One thing that I didn’t love was that when you pulled the animals off of the grid to set them aside, sometimes they just went flying off, sometimes at the very edge of my field of vision. But that also wasn’t a huge concern, just a little bit of an annoyance.
Conclusion
Overall, Eyes That Hypnotise was a very well-polished game. If you like these kinds of puzzles and you like adorable animals, I don’t think you can go wrong with it. It’s incredibly cute and relaxing and has a lot of levels, with more to be added soon. I like the love and care that obviously went into making this game as perfect as it could be, and I think anyone who picks this up is going to have a great time with it.
